Here is step by step tutorial on adding an addon-domain to dreamhost.
Login to your cpanel and click on manage domains. There enter your domain URL and assign how your domain should add for prefix www. I selected the second option so that any one type my domain without www will automatically be redirected to www prefix. This has an added advantage on SEO.
You can run this addon domain on the previous username, but I prefer creating a new user for this addon domain. This makes it easy for me to give control to particular users.
Last option is php mode and setting up Google apps for your domain. Dreamhost makes it very easy to configure Google apps (professional email address for your domain).
Click on Fully host domain. If you have purchased your domain from somewhere else, you need to change your DNS to point it to Dreamhost. That will be
- ns1.dreamhost.com
- ns2.dreamhost.com
- ns3.dreamhost.com
